Becoming angry with himself, he cutoff his eyelids to prevent it from happening again. According to thelegend, as his eyelids hit the floor thefirst tea plants sprang up, and thereafter tea would provide a stimulant to help keep students of Chan awake during zazen.

Another story states that, soon after meeting the emperor, Bodhidharma went to a monastery in Luoyang, where he spent nine years staring at a cave wall in intense concentration. Still another states that, in a fit of anger after repeatedly falling asleep while attempting to practice meditation, he cut off his eyelids. (This is one reason why he was often portrayed in art with an intense wide-eyed stare.) Upon touching the ground, they sprung up as the first tea plant. The first two of these legends are like others that seem intended to offer instruction in religious truths or in the importance of concentration in religious practice
